CHAMBERLAIN AND CHURCHILL.

Their Sudden Change to an Ardent Sup.
port OF the Government.
Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Sept. 24-Churchill has entirely disap-
pointed the expectations that were raised by his
attitude while parliament was sitting. 1t is
always his habit to play violent parts, and now he
outdoeS the most Sanguine supporters OF the gov
eminent in eulogising Its policy and prophecying
Its success. The extinction OF the National League
is with Lord Randolph only matter OF time. All
he seems to think necessary is to give the gov
eminent free hand. This is in total contradic-
ton with everything he said during the session,
but that is no new discovery In connection with
so lisht-headed demagogue as he.
Chamberlain's speech to the radical union In
Birmingham was another surprise. 1t was in the
worst possible temper Chamberlain was greatly
aggravated by the overwhelming vote OF the Biz
minyham liberal association once completely un-
der his thumb, condemning the Mitchelstown
police Chamberlain praises the police without
en- the proclamation OF The league that the govern
ment is doing It's work well and must be sup
ported. This simply is an illustration OF Cham
berialnS usual unreiablity. During the last
fortnight OF the session he was getting back into
something like his Old relations with Gladstone,
but as an Old friend of Cnamberlain'S told Inc the
other day the real of1ense is that Gladstone con-
tinues TO live. ar he said, "Gladstone were to
die to-morrow, Chamberlain's home rule scheme
would appear IN the papers the day AFTER
The Times Dublin correspondent says that the
visit OF Daytt TO America has Tor its main object
the healing OF the breach caused by OBriens atti-
tude toward Dr. MCGlynn and Henry George.
American subscriptions TO the league are, he adds
seriously falling off, and DaviLt, accordingly, is
going on a whipping-up crusade. This Is In direct
contradiction OF Davitts own statement. II
the Mitchelstowns court is in the least degree i'm
partial OBrien will probably be acquitted, as the
evidence OF the police is entirely broken down.
1C IS sign OF the times that Lord Norton, q
prominent unionist peer and an old Official, recon-
lnenued that the police should aim, not at the
lrlah MODS, but at their promoters in carriages.

The Government Not Responsible.
TWO HUNDRED AND TEN DOLLARS PAID TO THE
WRONG WOMAN.
Commissioner Black, OF the Pension Bureau, ad-
dressed a letter to the second Controller Of the
Treasury. stating that in 1871 the then Commits
soner Of Pensions compelled G. c. Scho1eld an at
torney Of Pittsburg, to pay over $40 which, 1t
was alleged, Schoheld had wrongly with
held from Management Parker, a pensioner. The
Commissioner OF Pensions, under date OF April
g. 1871, forwarded by mistake an ORDER for the
money he had recovered to Mrs. Mary Reed, OF
COnneautvlie, Pa, instead OF to Mrs. Parker. Mrs
Parker has never received the money, and: Gen.
Black asked II the action OF the then Commissioner
In directing the payment OF the money TO the
wrong person Is binding upon the Government, and
II the Government must now make good the
amount to Mrs. Parker, to whom 1t riShtIully be-
longs?
Deputy Controller Mcmahon decides that the
Government is no, bound by the order OF the Com
missioner, but that whether or not the then Com
missioner should make good the money, is not 4
question he Is called upon to decide. He holds
that as Schoneid held power OF attorney from
MIS- Parker to collect her pension. and as the Gov
eminent paid all that was due her TO her repre-
sentative, all the obligations OF the Government
were discharged The then Pension Commits
siOner, upon learning that SchOfield had wrong
fully withheld portion OF the pension, compelled
him to make restitution, but paid 1t over to the
wrong person.

THE THISrLE'S WATER LINZ.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24-Mr. Bell, the owner Of the
yacht Thistle. stated to-day, that there
was nothing more to say about the
excess in the ThiStle'S water line
measurement. 'Why," said he, "the ballast
could have been thrown out before she was meas
ured and she could have been re-ballasted. Then
we could have called for another measurement
after The race. But we desire to be fair In every
respect. We have her as nearly as pos
sibe In the condition in which she sailed
Oh the other side. She has more ballast than on
the way over, because we displaced some to make
room Tor the extra stores required for the voydg
There Is really no trouble about the matter what
